president clinton got the assault weapons ban passed with a lot of effort. he had to hustle on capitol hill to try to get people to vote for it. the n.r.a. was a factor back then as well. it's not just the n.r.a., but hundreds of millions of americans who have-- 100 million americans who have guns. and this is ron fournier, dispointed saying i don't have the words to describe the cowardess of congress and can't explain the impotencesy of president obama who vowed to use whatever power the office holds, but ultimately did not fight. >> monica is right with her analysis, political analysis was exactly right and saying that, now, he doesn't want these democrats to die on this hill. and the president doesn't want them to die on the hill. instead more americans with be shot and i don't have any patience for this cowardess is exactly what he's saying. and at least what you say is right. other people don't agree, i get that. i don't think it's right and the president doesn't think it rights, and it deserves a vote. >> megyn: the moving moment. state of the union. >
